Missing printer status icon
is this a local or a network printer?
Is the feature enabled in the Printer Folder Advanced options? Open Printers folder, File, Server Properties, Advanced If this is a connection, be sure to open the file and printer sharing ports on the firewall software. -- Alan Morris Windows Printing Team Search the Microsoft Knowledge Base he http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;[ln];kbhowto This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

Missing printer status icon
The printer is local- I actually use two Epson printers, but I switch cables manually when I need to. Neither of the printers (both Epsons) causes the icon to be displayed when I send a print file.

Missing printer status icon
It was NOT enabled- I followed the directions you sent me and that seemed to do the trick- I have no idea how it became disabled. Thank you very much for your help.
